CAPITAL PRIDE 2018 CELEBRATION

JUNE 7 – 10, 2018
WASHINGTON, DC

“Elements of Us.” Every person’s life is composed of a kaleidoscope of extraordinary parts, including identity, race, sexuality, gender, spirituality, experience, beliefs, goals, and so much more. These elements influence who we are and help sustain and balance us in what can be an otherwise perplexing and difficult world. Who we are also links us to each other and to our exceptional LGBTQ+ community.

We are constantly challenged to celebrate and appreciate what makes each of us unique, while at the same time we are called to recognize that our common elements bind us together, each to the other. Thus, collectively through Pride we are able to create a powerful foundation that will help us advance the cause of human dignity, equal rights, and a world free from discrimination and prejudice.

Together let us stand tall, look forward, take a deep breath, and become who we are meant to be – confident, supportive, resilient, compassionate, and glorious. Let’s celebrate the many “Elements of Us”!
